I am between Columbus, OH and Pittsburgh, PA now for grad school, and I'm wondering which one has a more robust LGBT culture. Anyone know the story of either?
I'm currently an undergrad at Ohio State and Columbus has a thriving LGBT culture. There is a huge gay pride rally each year and plenty of resources (both in Cbus and at OSU) based on my own opinions and from what I've heard from my LGBT friends. That being said, I have family in Pittsburgh and will mostly likely be there for grad school next year, and from what I've seen they also seem to be fairly accepting. I can't speak too much into how big the culture is there though.

I'm currently trying to decide between the MSPPM - DC Track and MSHCP (Health Care Policy). I'll be coming straight out of undergrad, so I'm not 100% sure where I want my career to head, but I'm hoping to decide at the admitted students weekend next month.
How many schools did you apply to?

I started looking at 30-something schools, then narrowed it down to 15. Ultimately, I applied to 9, and to be honest, that was probably a mistake. I thought that I would have a hard time getting in considering I'm still in undergrad, but it turned out to be okay since I somehow was accepted to all of them. About half of my schools were 'matches' and the other half were 'reaches' I think. If I had to do it over, I might have applied to some more competitive schools that have more funding to give, instead of middle-range schools that don't offer much funding.
